The Egals played in the 1st televised football game. On October 22, 1939, the Eagles lost to the Brooklyn Football Dodgers (a club which obviously no longer exists) by a final score of 23-14.

NBC sent an 8 man crew to film the contest, which was broadcast on one of the network’s New York City affiliates. Roughly 500 New Yorkers tuned in to watch the game. Altogether, the broadcast lasted for two hours and 33 minutes. There were no commercial interruptions.
